Sinner's Dream
Sorry, I Never Knew You

  1. Last night as I lay sleeping a dream came to me
    I dreamed about the end of time about eternity
    I saw a million sinners fall on their face and pray
    the Lord just sadly looked at them and this I heard Him say

    Sorry, I never knew you, I have no record of your birth
    sorry, I never knew you
    go serve the one that you served while on earth

  2. Well I thought that the time has surely come when I must face my trials
    and I told the Lord that I had been a Christian all the while
    and through his book he took a look and sadly shook his head
    he placed me over on the left and this is what he said

    Sorry, I never knew you, I have no record of your birth
    sorry, I never knew you
    go serve the one that you served while on earth

  3. Well I saw my wife and children, I heard their loving voice
    they must have been so happy, O how they did rejoice
    their robes of white around them, a crown upon their head
    my little girl looked up to me and this is what she said

  4. Daddy, we can't go with you, we must dwell in the joy of our Lord
    Sorry, but we still love you, but you'll never be our Daddy anymore

  5. And then I awakened, the tears were in my eyes
    and looking all around me and there to my surprise
    there was my wife and children, I knew it was a dream
    so kneeling at my bedside you should have heard me pray

  6. Father who art in Heaven, I know you gave your only son
    forgive me and let me serve thee, for I want to be ready when He comes
